VUV absorption spectroscopy to assist plasma engineering of Graphene – VIAGRA
This project aims to develop and utilize sophisticated plasma and surface diagnostics to acquire the fundamental knowledge required for the development of robust plasma processes for cleaning, doping, and patterning graphene, as well as for reducing and doping graphene oxide to produce rGO. In parti
Antiviral development to treat Bunyavirales infections – BUNYANTIVIR
Bunyavirales are RNA viruses comprising numerous neglected and/or emerging human pathogens that can cause hemorrhagic fevers, renal or respiratory failure, encephalitis, meningitis and congenital malformations. Lassa fever virus (LASV), Junin virus (JUNV), Rift Valley virus (RVFV), Crimean-Congo hae
3D environmental studies of the microstructure engineering of vanadate based phosphors at the nanoscale – 3D-NANOREV
Emerging applications of oxide nanoparticles inspire an in-depth comprehension on balancing their structure, surface and composition to afford multiple functionalities. Rare earth vanadates are archetypical luminescent materials that enable not only fundamental detailing on solid-state mechanisms an
Molecular movies of nerve agents reacting with their biological targets and antidotes by time-resolved serial synchrotron crystallography. – SerialX-OP
The use of organophosphorus chemical warfare nerve agents (NOPs) has renewed great concerns worldwide since their recent use in Syria (sarin), and in England and Russia where new NOPs were applied (Skripal and Navalny cases). The chemical threat has also regained scientific interest to develop new a
Improving lattice-based signature schemes and applications to advanced cryptographic functionalities – AMIRAL
Cryptography applications inevitably come into play when a communication between several entities must be secured. We see their expressions in everyday financial transactions, military or government communications, or between individuals when consulting medical data or even simple exchanges in a so
Next-gen frustrated magnetism – NGFM
Magnetic frustration has opened a window where quantum many-body entanglement can be studied and manipulated, without being hindered by magnetic order. Its influence has spread across condensed matter in multiferroics, skyrmions, artificial lattices ... and brought to low energy the exciting high-en
Modeling very high energy natural electrons – MENTHE
This activity aims at the extension of Salammbô, the Earth’s radiation belt physical code developed by ONERA, to the highly energetic electron range. For such needs, recasting the current representation of resonant wave particle interactions in the code is crucial in order to incorporate a valid den
The role of linguistic and non-linguistic factors in the evolution of nominal classification systems – EVOGRAM_Ukraine
Categorization is one the most frequent tasks realized by humans during their life, as elements and experience encountered need to be categorized to be efficiently stored and retrieved within the human brain. Such need is reflected in language via various mechanisms such as grammatical gender (e.g.,
Light Localisation : Anderson and beyond – LiLoA
Localization of light in three-dimensional disordered samples has been elusive up to date, with several initial experimental reports, followed a few years later by their re-interpretation. While absorption and nonlinear effects may be to blame for erroneous interpretations of these early exp
Reading Arabidopsis heat stress epitranscriptome – HEAT-EpiRNA
Due to global climat change, plants undergo increasing environmental variations unfavorable to their growth and development. Resistance to stress involves sensing and signaling networks driving modifications in gene expression to switch on protective mechanisms. These changes are not the mere result
